| Kai's verdict | S-tier for open-source model APIs. The default in this space. | B-tier. Use Claude + manual SEO thinking. Writesonic is fast but generic. | S-tier for aesthetics. If you care how it looks more than how it's made, this wins. | S-tier for study. The Audio Overview is a killer feature. Try it with three of your favorite PDFs. |
